Holy shit. That's insane. People don't realize how terrible it is to die from tylenol induced liver damage. That's often considered one of the worst ways to commit suicide. You're in an incredible amount of pain for a long time.
- dctoedt 6y ago> That's often considered one of the worst ways to commit suicide. I came close to seeing that first-hand some years ago: My (widowed) dad suffered a long, agonizing death from a form of leukemia. I was with him, at his house, for his final week, with a hospice nurse checking in periodically. He refused morphine and instead took a fair amount of acetaminophen; for calories, he drank a lot of beer and V-8 juice mixed together. I warned him about the danger of mixing alcohol and acetaminophen; he immediately perked up, thinking that would be a way for him to end things. He was disappointed when I explained that it wouldn't be a quick death: he'd just wreck his liver and be in even more agony. (He died a few hours later.)
